Licensing Considerations

The Master on Demand is an exclusive feature of the RAS Server when it is in Concurrent User license mode.  In this mode, the connection hyperlinks and the Connect commands in the dropdown context menu next to each Host in the Active Hosts section of the Web Console homepage and on the Members sub tab will be enabled.  When an Account User is logged in to the Web Console, they will be assigned one license under the Concurrent User license model.  While the license is being held by the Web Console, the Account User can launch as many Master on Demand windows as they like and a single license would be used, as long as the same web browser is being used.
 
If the Web Console times out, or the Account User logs out, but one or more Master on Demand instances are still open, the license will transfer to an open Master on Demand, unless the Master on Demand is in View Only mode (in which case no concurrent user license will be consumed).  If a Master on Demand is open and consuming a license, and the Account User switches to View Only mode, the license will be released; if the Account User is in View Only mode and no other application is using a license, and the Account User requests input control, it will only be granted if a license is available for that account type.    For more information about Master on Demand and licensing, please contact a member of the Sales or Support team at sales@vector-networks.com.
